Deco is Brazilian.
Cristiano Ronaldo is Portuguese.
Deco can play becuase he changed his nationality and never ever played for the Brazilian National Team.

cristiano ronaldo was born in portugal. You might have been thinking about Ronaldo, who was born in brazil.
deco was born in brazil but has portuguese citizenship, therefore making him eligable to play for the portuguese national squad.

A Brazilian national, Deco also holds Portuguese citizenship, and so in 2003 he was called up to the Portugal squad at the behest of fellow Brazilian and national team coach Scolari. The cultured play-maker accepted Scolari’s invitation, deciding to switch his allegiances to play for the Portuguese rather than wait any longer for an opportunity to arise with Brazil.
Ronaldo, was born in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal to his mother Maria Dolores dos Santos Aveiro and his father Jose Diniz Aveiro. He grew up with a brother, Hugo, and two sisters, Elma and Katia. His second name ("Ronaldo") is relatively rare in Portugal, his parents named him after former US president Ronald Reagan, for whom his father had a lot of respect.[2
